Forecasts about Apple

In the first quarter 2012 Apple announced record levels of sales volumes of iPhone and iPad. In comparison with the same period of last year deliveries of smartphones grew by 88% and reached 35.1 million units, tablets – almost twice and made 11.8 million. Despite so impressive results the director of the known research company Forrester George Colony considers that the best days of Apple already behind. According to him, without Steve Jobs the fashion-maker in the world of smartphones and tablets actually lost the leader and now goes down stream towards to mediocrity and mediocrity.

Certainly, the founder of Apple was extremely charismatic personality and the person in every respect uncommon. He had inexplicable capability to win round the huge mass of followers, many of which saw in him the guru and allocated it with nearly supernatural capabilities. Was considered that Jobs directed all efforts and time to favourite case, working on improvement of the released gadgets without cease.

You should not dismiss also the developed Steve Jobs's intuition, it helped to bring design and convenience of use of Apple of products to perfection, having left competitors far behind. The head of Apple perfectly knew that it is necessary for consumers and as it is better for them to offer it.

As a result, Jobs's place was taken by Tim Cook, – as George Koloni, the head experienced and capable to resist to an impact of competitors, however at all deprived so of magnetism necessary for Apple considers. On April 25 he wrote in the blog that acquired Apple before a backlog and the loyal relation of consumers he will last for 24-48 months. However if during this time the new charismatic leader does not come to Apple the company gradually will begin to turn from exclusive into just good. It will be inevitably followed by deceleration of growth rates of income and gradual simplification of the released products according to average market trends.
